Sam Soliman vs Felix Sturm Feb 2

Sturm is scared of GG's power I think. He probably sees this as a safer option to another belt. I dare say it will be more than 30-40k. Zappa got 75k for his title fight against Miguel Vasquez and it was a undercard fight.

 

For once we agree on something. I hope the "boxing prostitute" gets KTFO.

 

Its not a title fight m8 and its in Germany, u cant compare title fight prices in USA to non-title fight prices in Germany. The going rate in Germany is 30k for an opponent like Soliman, its what other fighters with the same experiance and #1 position have been paid in the past, all be it from a diffrent promoter , i dont expect Sam will earn much more than that, be pushing 50k big time, thus i said 30-40k.

Do u think Sturm is looking to challenge Geale for his IBF title once he defeats Sam?

 

Best not make this a habit m8, people will begin to talk

 

I think it's safe to say they're being extremely well compensated financially to risk his mandatory position with the IBF, wouldn't you say? And as I've stated, getting paid more than what he's likely to receive should it go to purse bids with Geale.

 

I'm from Ipswich to pal, how old are you?

 

Yes Sturm is looking at the winner of Mundine-Geale which Soliman is the mandatory. With how Ipswich Express says about Sturm paying fighters well and Sturm getting Soliman over there instead of Sam having a easy tune up I think the boxing prostitute will be earning high class ***** rates instead of street walker rates for this fight.

 

congrats to sam. One thing is for sure, he has earnt all the shots he has had over the years. Hopefully he can pull out a performance of old.

 

He cried and cried about not getting a title shot..Instead of fighting a keep busy fight and then getting the Mundine-Geale winner ,he picks a fight HE ****ING KNOWS he aint gonna win to get a minor payday and here is the best bit,with the loss you can say goodbye to his title shot and ever getting one.

"Sam Soliman....Man his like a prostitute...yeah hes boxing prostitue" - Anthony Mundine

 

Dont get me wrong,good on him for taking the fight,the guy will go down with one of the best fighting resumes in Oz hist,hes fought all over and everyone...but **** me he knows how to blow his title shots

 

Minor payday atsch ....

 

I bet Sam wished he'd had a lot more of these size 'minor paydays' along the way

 

For a boxing fanatic's board, many on here don't understand the business side of the sport.
